Oğuz needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in Istanbul
Without my ride-share car Oğuz can't work; a $350 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 10 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my family of five. Before the breakdown I worked twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $350 goes:
• Labor charges: $80
• Towing and inspection: $30
• rear axle replacement (parts): $240
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending strength, Oğuz. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Thinking of you and your family, Oğuz. Hope the shop reopens soon
Hang in there, Oğuz. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Duque de Caxias.
Sending good thoughts. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. We're a small family in Birmingham but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Istanbul
Hope the shop reopens soon. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
